They may have started with a blank
canvas, but Tryst Theatre 'C' now have the Scottish Finals
firmly in the frame.

Their "semi-professional" one-act version of Yasmina
Reza's hit comedy Art was awarded the Outlook
Tower Trophy for first place by adjudicator Richard Ellis
at the Eastern Divisional Finals and now progresses to the
next round in Inverness.

However the honours didn't stop there - director Alan Clark
was at a loss for words as he collected the John Duncan Quaich
for production.

Congratulations also go to Craig Murray who attempted the
back breaking feat of not only braving the stage alongside
Messrs Clark and Paterson, but also directing the Monument
Performing Arts School production of The Cheviot, the Stag
and the Black, Black Oil.

The Stirling-based youth team scooped no less than three
awards for stage presentation, Scottish life and character
and third place overall. Best wishes to them as they compete
in the Divisional Youth Final next week.

The Scottish Finals take place at Eden Court Theatre, Inverness
on 5th-7th May.
